Assessment of effect of music tempo on heart rate recovery using wearable device

Taiwan government has recently promoted “Plan for Building Island of Exercise” which has leaded the trend of exercises and increased the needs of various healthcare and fitness products. Prior researches have also pointed out that listening to music with different tempos while exercising apparently affects heart rate, oxygen consumption, breathing rate and other physiological parameters. Among the physiological parameters, heart rate (HR) best represents the current body status while heart rate recovery (HRR) can also represent the physical fitness condition since HRR can be used to predict death risk.
